00:00First and foremost, the three losses, like I said to our players, that's the past.

00:10We have to learn from it, especially our opponents.

00:16The good thing is we got the win and I said, it's good to be back.

00:23We need to win this and go to the next game so we can get our goal.

00:30But you've been mentioning in the past, the need to step up, given that Bravo is gone.

00:35And today, the U.N. is doing it again, consistently making goal shots for you.

00:39Your thoughts on the career game of the U.N.?

00:43Yes, actually, first of all, we've been dedicating this game to Bravo.

00:50We don't know yet if he'll be able to come back and I hope he'll be okay.

00:55And about Rez Villegas, yes, he's a leading scorer.

00:59But, of course, I give credit also to the key pitches that Romy Rayboud passed to him,

01:05that's why he scored.

01:07So, honestly, it's a big effort.

01:09What we're seeing is Rez's score.

01:13He's really consistent when it comes to scoring and that's what I'm giving to him.

01:17But, again, the small things that we haven't seen, like Rayboud's upload,

01:22our teammates, our big man, and the assists of our guards.

01:27So, it's another big effort.
